This repository is up for adoption. I am looking for a maintainer I can transfer the project to. Please see #32 for more information.
It's a dnsmasq Docker image. It is only 6 MB in size. It is just an ENTRYPOINT to the dnsmasq binary. Can you smell what the rock is cookin'?
It is usually a good idea to use a tag other than latest if you are using this image in a production setting. There are several tags to choose from:
andyshinn/dnsmasq:2.72: dnsmasq 2.72 based on Alpine 3.2andyshinn/dnsmasq:2.75: dnsmasq 2.75 based on Alpine 3.3andyshinn/dnsmasq:2.76: dnsmasq 2.76 based on Alpine 3.4andyshinn/dnsmasq:2.78: dnsmasq 2.78 based on Alpine Edgeandyshinn/dnsmasq:2.79: dnsmasq 2.79 based on Alpine 3.8andyshinn/dnsmasq:2.80: dnsmasq 2.80 based on Alpine 3.11andyshinn/dnsmasq:2.81: dnsmasq 2.81 based on Alpine 3.12andyshinn/dnsmasq:2.83: dnsmasq 2.83 based on Alpine 3.13
dnsmasq requires NET_ADMIN capabilities to run correctly. Start it with something like docker run -p 53:53/tcp -p 53:53/udp --cap-add=NET_ADMIN andyshinn/dnsmasq:2.75.
The configuration is all handled on the command line (no wrapper scripts here). The ENTRYPOINT is dnsmasq -k to keep it running in the foreground. If you wanted to send requests for an internal domain (such as Consul) you can forward the requests upstream using something like docker run -p 53:53/tcp -p 53:53/udp --cap-add=NET_ADMIN andyshinn/dnsmasq:2.75 -S /consul/10.17.0.2. This will send a request for redis.service.consul to 10.17.0.2
As this is a very barebones entrypoint with just enough to run in the foreground, there is no logging enabled by default. To send logging to stdout you can add --log-facility=- as an option.
